Robin Lopez with yet another career night. Amare destroys us inside. Nash ends with 15 assists.

The Suns are a pretty good team. We're not. If we shoot around .500 we'll stick around and the game will be close, we'll even have a chance to win it, but the Suns are the kind of team that will beat us 8 of each 10 times we play them. And we defeated them a while ago.

In the 1st qtr, a Net stepped on Monta’s ankle. He tried to work through it. Early in the 3rd, he signaled to be taken out of the game, did not return. Xrays negative. Will not travel to Suns game. Curry will be the ONLY GUARD in Suns game.

Beating the Suns tonight could be our best hope of landing Amare Stoudamire in a trade.

I think the biggest problem with landing Stoudamire in a trade would be him and his agent putting up a big stink about going to the Warriors. The Suns don't have to care but they probably will. Few organizations, excluding the Warriors, want to piss off the players they trade.

If the Warriors beat the Suns tonight, AND Curry/Mags/Biedrins all have good games, Stoudamire might not hate wanting to be traded to the Warriors. I know, a big might, but he could be intrigued if the Warriors can pull out a win against his team while playing a bunch of D-Leaguers.

This is a huuuuuuuuuuge stretch, but I'm looking for anything positive at all for this team right now.
